But, any casual fan can turn on a Heat home game and see how many empty seats their are in that stadium, even during the playoffs.

That simply doesn’t happen in Chicago.

You wanna hear about loyalty and organizations and what they have toward players?

Go ask Derek Fisher. He’ll tell you.

This is a big charade for Howard because he saw how badly LeBron damaged his reputation (and more importantly, his marketability) with his atrocious free agency behavior and the decision.

He now wants to appear to be a “loyal” guy because he stuck it out in a situation that he didn’t like. But I think most sensible people see through it and realize Dwight is putting on an act to preserve what little credibility he has left. I also think he realizes how much it can hurt him financially down the road (when’s the last time you saw a LeBron commercial?) if he made such a big stink and left Orlando in such a whiny, unprofessional way.

Who knows, maybe it’s another case (like LeBron) of being surrounded by bad handlers/managers/agents. But either way, Howard really looks like a clown in all of this.
